I don't think she was flaming her--I think that JJJ's post was a little mis-worded, if I am reading it correctly.
I read it as "if you (general you, not specific to the poster she was quoting--directed more at women who might actually see this as a positive thing) want extra help..maybe a maid is better"--well, I can see how I would say "you" in that instance (if I was speaking one-on-one to another woman). Although it would probably come out more along the lines of "if ya want some help with the laundry, for pete's sake, hire it out! But I draw the line at letting the laundry lady spread her legs for my DH, too!" (if I was speaking of this to a friend of mine, about the TX FLDS group).
I think that we've been struck once again by the lack of nuance and tone available(on message boards). Maybe I'm just trying to read it in a more positive light.
